Peak position is from daily updates (Fri, Fri - Sat, Fri - Sun...) It probably was #1 some day during release week. That I get. I don't understand how songs that are long gone from Billboard and Mediabase are on them. They just don't do recurrents. Regardless of age, they list the top 100 songs under their formula. I actually do like the chart not including radio or passive streams, it just needs some fine-tuning. Like if they're gonna post the chart weekly, don't list daily peaks. Make it one or the other.

So with sales numbers like those are three weeks at #1 a foregone conclusion?

This song will try to have 2nd week #1 in country airplay, from Country Aircheck. I think it should get it pretty easily which is good since this has been such a big hit for him. I'm glad it is spending some time in the Hot 100 top 20.

Sorry for the double post, but "God's Country" is eligible for Platinum.

Praising this song just because Blake wasn't asleep when he recorded it is like praising "Boys Round Here" just because it's "different". So while it is great that Blake decided to release something that gives us the illusion he's interested in recording interesting music again, this song is atrocious lyrically and I can't forgive it for that just because musically this is interesting. Really really hope this doesn't do much. I'm so over Blake. I agree with this haha. I think this actually sounds decently good musically, I'm a sucker for a good strong sounding song but the lyrics for this are just sad man. The premise alone is something that would've turned me away but the attitude and the forced image of a 'perfect' Christian just makes it so much worse. Usually repetition doesn't bother me either but at the 4th growl of "gawwwds countreeeeeee" even musically I'm not that into it haha. However despite that, I do like this songs success because I hope it inspires this direction of sound more in country music, hopefully without any lyrical problems too. This overblown melodrama could very much be turned into something far better in the hands of a better artist so I'd be excited to see that!

Basically, the Acoustic version is what it woulda sounded like if recorded10-20 years ago.

#1 on Hot Country Songs. It appears the Hot 100 peak will be #17.

What’s interesting is that it seems like this song never really got a huge push week at radio. On the mediabase panel it topped out well below 9000 spins and 60 audience

I think it's possible Blake's team was planning on pushing this for more weeks (although I'm not a radio insider so this is only a suspicion...maybe sabre14 can confirm) but saw how close Eric Church's "Some of It," which is getting maxed this week, was to Blake on the Billboard and Mediabase charts published this Monday, and decided to stop pushing Blake this week because they had slim to no chance of maintaining their lead over Eric through the end of the week.
